On November 14th in 2010, twenty-five year old Army Specialist Jesse Snow of Fairborn was killed fighting Afghan insurgents. Four other soldiers lost their lives in that battle, but Snow is being credited with saving the lives of three servicemen, and preventing any captures before being fatally wounded.
Because of his actions on the battlefield, the U. S. Army is presenting the Silver Star to Jesse’s family. Jesse’s father, John Snow, is a retired Air Force Chief Master Sergeant. He says he “always knew Jesse would do something special. ”
